In the money last time at this track (18.21) in a D2, finishing a 4 length second. Suited here and expected to run well.

Finished fourth two starts ago then regained form last time out when he found one better over 305m in a D2 at this track. Looks to have turned things around so follow him up.

Form slipped last start when he finished 5th in a D2 on March 7 over 305m at this track behind Tex Brit beaten 2.75 lengths (18.35). Others make more appeal.

Good effort to score last start by a nose over 305m at this track in 18.44, beating Swift Micah. Solid win last time out but this looks tough.
